About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Continuous IOP Measurement and the Influence of Drug Induced IOP Decrease on the Measurement

Continuous intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement with a contact lens sensor may provide more information on the drug-related IOP change than 24-hour IOP measurement with Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT.

Read the detailed description
  • Participants are washed ot from all glaucoma medication for 6 weeks
  • one eye per participant is investigated (study eye)
  • 24-h intraocular pressure (IOP) curve is obtained with Goldmann tonometry and Sensimed contact lens sensor tonometry twice, in 14 days
  • for Sensimed contact lens curves median values (in arbitrary units), for Goldmann applanation tonometry, mean and SD values are used to characterize the curves, for comparisions % changes are used for the corresponding time periods
  • treatment (travoprost 0.005% 1/day) is given to all eyes for 3 months 24-h Goldmann and Sensimed IOP curves are repeated
  • IOP curves are determined in arbitrary units and mmHg, respectively, and compared for reproducibility (untreated phase) and relative (%)change (untreated curve vs. under treatment curve) with both methods, respectively

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Continuous intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing travoprost 0.003% in people with Glaucoma and Ocular Hypertension, run by Semmelweis University at 2 sites in Hungary.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Mar 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Hungary. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Continuous intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement (time frame: 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Mar 2013.
